Virtus Convertible & Income Fund offers a high 9.6% yield but depends heavily on return of capital, causing long-term net asset value (NAV) decline. Its portfolio is highly leveraged at 32.7% and mostly invested in below investment grade or unrated securities, which increases risk and volatility. The fund also has a high expense ratio of 4.20%, further undermining yield sustainability. Preferred shares NCV.PR.A provide a safer alternative with a 6.75% yield, 'A' Fitch rating, and lower risk profile, making them a better income choice for investors.
